MLB says it won't change disputed Galarraga call

[doctor_gogol]

Baseball commissioner Bud Selig said today that he won't overturn umpire Jim Joyce's missed call and award Armando Galarraga a perfect game.

EDIT- Never mind! This article is a rehash of the Selig statement on MLB.com

Stupidly the freep is reporting a decision has been made when it has NOT!

I was about to reply when I saw your edit. Yes, Selig never *said* he wouldn't overturn the call in this statement, but it looks like the press is reading between the lines with it. And maybe Selig won't actually address the question head on -- will he or won't he reverse the call? -- but it would be a stretch to use this statement as clear indication that he won't as he never explicitly said "the call stands." Though it would be typical Selig weasel-wording to leave it at this.

So. Many. Threads. On. This.

Can't keep track of conversations anymore.
